Hi again, I changed most of the vacuum lines and have some power back.

Also changed the pressure convertor 31219138 that showed an improvement too.

But going through and getting my head around what should be happening I thought about the waste gate actuator. How it opened. I assume vacuum so checked how much was needed to open it. 6 inHg. Does that sound right to anyone?
Or is it opened by pressure and I'm actuating it the wrong way?? (manually/sucking).

Im going to fit a boost/vac gauge, where do I T in on my engine?

Wastegate actuator line? There is another line which goes to the turbo from the TCV would that be a better option?

TIA
